The queen of the end times is reborn and goes crazy, her whole family is burned to death

"Why can't I use the dowry? It's all the property of my Lu family. I can use it however I want."

Lu Zhengping looked at her coldly, without any affection in his eyes as he used to look at his old wife.

"But Master, Wanru is going to marry into the Second Prince's house soon. What will we do if we don't have a dowry?"

"Marry in?"

Lu Zhengping sneered, "You really know how to flatter her. She's just a concubine, why would she need a dowry? It's not enough to bring shame to the Lu family."

"Master, you are so cruel. Wanru is our precious daughter whom we have raised for more than ten years. Don't you feel sorry for her at all?"

"I feel sorry for her, but who will feel sorry for me?"

Lu Zhengping slammed the table in anger, "She ruined my son, and I still feel sorry for her. We planned everything for her, but look at what that idiot has done? Her reward is that I can't even keep my position as Shangshu?"

"Master, Wanru doesn't want to do this either! Can't you forgive her for the sake of marrying into the Second Prince's mansion?"

"Is the Second Prince's Mansion some kind of wealthy place?"

Lu Zhengping cursed loudly, "You two fools! Your lifelong honor and disgrace were given by me, not by Lu Wanru. Since you love your daughter so much, then after she is carried into the Second Prince's Mansion, you should go with her! My Lu family can't keep two of you."

Chen Mei'e's eyes widened in disbelief. "Master, how can you say that? You and I have been husband and wife for decades."

Lu Zhengping laughed at himself, "I haven't noticed your stupidity in these decades. You're simply a foolish woman who can't accomplish anything, but always ends up causing trouble. They say you should marry a virtuous woman, but I, Lu Zhengping, am truly unlucky to marry you."

Chen Mei'e looked at him in despair. This was the cruelest sentence she had ever heard since she got married.

Just then, the housekeeper came in, leading a woman wearing a red coat and heavily made-up.

When the man saw Lu Zhengping and the others, he immediately came forward with a smile and said, "Master Lu, the Second Prince has sent me here to take Miss Lu to marry him."

When Lu Zhengping saw that there was no one behind her, not even a servant, his face turned dark.

"What does the Second Prince mean? Why are you the only bridegroom here?"

"Master Lu, Miss Lu is being taken to be a concubine, so a sedan chair is enough." The matchmaker said meaningfully, "Master Lu was once the Minister of Rites, so he should know the rules better."

Lu Zhengping's face was tense and ugly. He waved his hands at the servants and shouted, "Go and call that evil girl out."

After he finished speaking, he immediately turned and left, as if he was extremely annoyed by the other person's words and didn't want to listen to any more nonsense.

As for the matchmaker, the smile on her face remained unchanged. She was still amiable and welcoming, not at all annoyed by his rudeness.

When Lu Wanru heard Lu Zhengping invite her to the main hall, she was delighted and thought that Chen Mei'e had helped her get the dowry.

She had always known that Lu Zhengping and his wife had prepared a generous dowry for her. They hoped that she would marry into a wealthy family and bring honor to the family. Whenever she thought of the rare treasures in the dowry, her brows lit up, and she couldn't hide her smile.

With that much money, do you still worry about not being able to cure this face?

With a triumphant smile on her face, she strode towards the main hall.

However, what came into view was not the figure of his father, but the distraught Chen Mei'e and a matchmaker with a smirk on her face.

"Oh my! Miss Lu is truly a lady from a wealthy family. She can't even show her face at home."

The thorny words stung her ears, and Lu Wanru looked at Chen Mei'e in astonishment and said, "Mom, this is..."

Chen Mei'e finally recovered some strength and said to her softly, "The Second Prince has sent someone to pick you up. Please follow him."

Lu Wanru stared at her in disbelief, thinking to herself: How could she marry me off so nonchalantly?

The matchmaker didn't care about that and came up to pull the person over. "Miss Lu, get on the sedan quickly and don't miss the auspicious time."

Lu Wanru was weak and she staggered after a few pulls. There was no room for regret and she could only watch herself being dragged away.

She screamed heartbreakingly: "Second Prince, I want to see the Second Prince!"

"When you return home, you will naturally be able to meet the second prince." The matchmaker spat, and her hands became more rough.

"No, I want to see him now. Why doesn't he come to marry me?"

The matchmaker couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing. "You're just a concubine who was carried into the mansion. Why does the Second Prince need to be there in person? Hurry up and get on the sedan chair. If you really miss the auspicious event, you'll just be an old maid in this Lu Mansion."

When Chen Mei'e heard this, she quickly advised, "Wanru, go get on the sedan first! I'll give you the dowry later."

After saying this, she immediately called for the maids in the mansion, and they all worked together to forcibly drag Lu Wanru out. Lu Wanru's hands and feet were tied, and she was then stuffed directly into the sedan chair. Lu Wanru was almost crazy, shouting hoarsely: "Mother, how can you treat me like this? I am your daughter!"

Chen Mei'e wiped away her bitter tears and said to herself, "When you get to the Second Prince's residence, you must serve him well and don't act like a spoiled brat. Okay?"

"mother……"

The matchmaker interrupted them, flicked her handkerchief and shouted, "The auspicious time has arrived, go home."

The sedan chair was lifted up, wobbling unsteadily. Before Lu Wanru could even settle down, she bumped headfirst into the wooden eaves. Suddenly, the back of her head felt like it had been struck by electricity, a piercing pain that left her speechless.

The matchmaker looked back at the sedan chair, spat with disdain, and thought to herself: Another "lady of noble family" pretending to be delicate, who became obedient after hearing that she was going to marry the second prince.

There were no loud gongs and drums, nor any grand ceremony with three matchmakers and six betrothals. The sedan chair was quietly carried into the Second Prince's residence through the back door.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, the sedan chair stopped. Lu Wanru was thrown out of shape in the sedan chair. The matchmaker roughly untied the ropes on her body, pushed her and said, "Your maid is here to pick you up. Go with her to the side room and wait."

Lu Wanru took a look at the surroundings and immediately became furious: "You actually carried me to the woodshed."

"Where else should we carry it to? Should we carry it to the yard? Don't you even consider whether you are worthy enough? Hurry up and follow the maid and don't get in the way here."

After saying this, the matchmaker and the servant actually began to clean the sedan chair in front of her. Seeing this, Lu Wanru felt furious and angry. She was furious: Could it be that in their eyes, I am such a despicable thing? I have to endure such humiliation!

The maid from the Second Prince's house also had a bad face towards her and said in a cold voice, "Miss Lu, this way."

After saying that, the maidservant left without even glancing at her.

Lu Wanru was distracted for a moment, and the maid disappeared from her sight.

She cursed silently in her heart, filled with resentment and unwillingness. But how could she dare to act recklessly in this completely unfamiliar place?

Thinking of this, her hatred for Chen Mei'e and Lu Zhengping grew stronger. Those two were so cold-blooded and heartless that they didn't even allow her to keep a servant girl with them.

Yan Wanwan, who had a panoramic view of everything from a distance, was laughing so hard that she could hardly stop, and she even choked several times in her excitement.

Lu Wanru, Lu Wanru, you are already so embarrassed right now. I really can't imagine how you will deal with it in the future. I just hope that you can still have the "joy" of getting married.
